Hey everybody this is my first ever fanfic so I would appreciate it if you tell what you think about it.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to Naruto and all rights are reserved to Masashi kishimoto.
Warning this is a Naruto x mei x hinata fic, not sure if i should make it a harem fanfic tho but if i feel i can smoothly add other girls i might give it a try. Several changes to canon throughout.
This whole chapter is a flashback
Staring into the moon ,his surrounding slowly morphed into a completely different place,where he 'Naruto' stood on the head of a very large rock carved to resemble the first hokage and in front of him Sasuke stood on opposite sides of the Valley of the End ,the head of madara uchiha.
Remembering the fight wasn't what he wanted now ,in his younger days he concluded that sasuke was somehow manipulated into betraying them, their trust,friendship,but over time it became clear to him that his best friend and rival, Sasuke had actually attempted to kill him just to get to orochimaru ,and if it wasn't for the fox he would have died that day.
'i have to end this fast, I'm loosing so much blood and my body cant keep going on with this much strain' thought naruto looking at the hole in his shoulder and other wounds he had. meanwhile sasuke was having similar thoughts except his concern was the possibility of the hokage sending reinforcement ,it would be a lot problematic as he was injured and didn't really have the strength to fight more people.
His only option was ending this match quickly ,and with that he called in his chakra ,feeling the flow of the energy , Sasuke embraced the Curse Mark's dark power.
Naruto seeing this called upon the kyuubi's chakra, immediately he felt the rush of it flowing through his body. it was intoxicating giving him the feeling like he could take on an entire army and not get tired ,but he had to focus on what was ahead of him, his mission and that's what he did.
They stared into each other's eyes.
"Lets end this. This battle, and all the battles we've had until now!" Sasuke yelled, quickly calling upon the rest of his chakra to use the Chidori. Naruto stood still, closing his eyes, as he made a Rasengan in his good hand. They stood there, staring, until they both suddenly jumped forward, screaming.
"NARUTO!"
"SASUKE!"
Suddenly Naruto heard a beeping sound ,trying to ignore it he continued walking , groaning loudly in annoyance, having grown tired of hearing the sound he decided to find its origin 'ok now where's that sound coming from' he thought while walking in a house that looked like his,except it was somehow merged with the hokage tower.
He had been walking for hours but he wasn't tired which was weird and so he decided to just use the window since the doors obviously kept pulling him into random weird places. Ignoring the increasing sound he opened the window and looked outside preparing to jump but was greeted with a crazy site.
The building was huge, it was so tall that it would make kyuubi looked like a kid if he stood near it, immediately realizing jumping would no doubt kill him, Naruto was about to close the window when his body suddenly went limp as if it had been drained of all its energy, loosing his balance, he fell backwards hitting his head on the edge of the window before falling through the window. 'oh my god kami save meeeee' was all he could say as he tried to somehow move his paralyzed limbs in an attempt to stop himself from falling to his death.
"Noooo"naruto shouted as his body jerked forward ,breathing heavy he looked around to familiarize with the environment, after taking calm breaths, he was finally able to stabilize his breathing "where am i?" he questioned with a puzzled look.
Lucky for him someone came by when they heard the noise he made inside.
What happened from then was a total blur as he was completely thinking about his previous mission. His stay in the hospital was not one that he liked as he couldn't see his friends, train, eat ramen ,he just stared at plain white walls for days and the occasional check ups by doctors, sometimes even tsunade or shizune.
Timeskip : 1 week later
Naruto currently was at ichiraku ramen eating his third bowl of ramen when a tall shadow covered his vision, lifting up his head he turned to look at it and to his surprise it was jiraiya
"ero-sennin what are you doing here" naruto said as he stopped stuffing ramen in his mouth.
"what do you mean what am i doing here, i obviously came to see how your fairing gaki" replied jiraiya
Not trusting him naruto asked "is that all?"
watching him shake his head jiraiya decided he should just tell him the reason, after all he wasn't going to loose anything ."to be honest when i heard about your condition after the mission i was a little bit worried, so I came to see how you were recovering, that was originally the plan but-"
naruto chose to interrupt then saying "but what?"
ignoring him jiraiya went on "i figured if orochimaru was training your teammate ,then he would get a lot stronger and as we can see in your state you would be no match for him, so why don't i train you too so that you at least put up a good fight next time"
thinking naruto said "that would be great ,but i cant leave my friends and I'm not sure if tsunade baasan would agree with your plan"
Expecting something like this jiraiya said "don't worry i talked with tsunade hime about it, she was ok with it and don't worry about your friends you would still see them, after all its not like were going forever"
"ok I'm in" said naruto after briefly reflecting on his answer
"good , we move tomorrow by 6:00AM sharp , be at the gate ,now you have enough time to make adequate preparations and tell your friends goodbye. That's what naruto spent his last days in konoha doing along with packing for the journey.
Timeskip : 6:00AM the next day
Naruto met jiraiya at the gate ,who already was with tsunade and shizune . After a brief moment of interaction they said their goodbyes, each party going their separate way.
"You ready for this?" Jiraiya questioned while glancing at his student.
Looking back at the village towards the rock carved faces of their previous leaders. Naruto stayed silent for a while as he tried to come on terms with the fact that he won't be seeing his home, and friends for a while.
Silently vowing to return a lot more stronger, Naruto balled his fist while calming his nerves.
"Yes!" Naruto replied firmly with a serious look of determination
Feeling a bit of pride in his student Jiraiya nodded his head,and so naruto and jiraiya strolled out signalling the beginning of their journey.
